I can't seem to make any correlation between having a little or not. Sometimes the imbibery seems to send the score through the stratosphere and sometimes it seems to cure what was ailing my round. Usually I can't putt at all after two espressos, but sometimes I can. I tossed an even par the other day when I'd had the two morning uppers and then drank ale instead of water after the front nine. I did miss some way easy putts and really gave up what would been close to a career round. I wind up not knowing anything from the experience.

Now I learn that some women drink. I'm shocked, shocked I tell you!

I consider most rounds of golf to be Masters training rounds. Can't imagine practicing for the Masters sober.

I know, right?! That's what scares me...

However, Masters and Fourth of July are, like, nonstop all day long four or five days in a row of constant drunken debauchery... I feel like they're entirely different beasts than a "regular" round of golf where I get a little buzz on... I guess maybe it's like all or nothing for me... hehe...

What an epic day of disc golf today at Horning's Hideout today. It was just me and my dog Reagan. In my first round I shot a PB of 58 on the canyon course, and then matched it in my 2nd round. I also shot par on 18 for the first time in my 2nd round. All I can say on 18 is KATANA even after hitting the mando tree I still actually overshot 18s basket on my 3rd drive. That disc ROCKS!!

Lady... you are amazing! Your passion and dedication to this sport is such an inspiration... can't believe you overdrove 18's basket! Are you kidding me?! And consistent... plus, I still think Reagan is one of the best dogs I've ever met... can she caddy for you on Sunday? Hehe.

Thanks Em it was a very satisfying day of golf for me I agree Reagan is one of the best dogs ever, but unfortunately she will not be able to be my caddy on Sunday. I would never take my dogs on tournament rounds. I just think dogs and little kids are not a good mix in a tournament setting.

Agreed on the dogs and kids and tournies thing...

... plus, Reagan would probably be all sneaky and try to psyche out the other ladies too much... jk, of course.

I had a good golf day on Saturday, and got personal bests at both Leverich and Pier. I'm a real beginner, and I'm excited that I'm seeing some improvement! I got a 58 at Leverich (first time under 5/hole), and beat my husband on two holes. I don't remember my previous best there, but I know I've never even gotten close to 5/hole. I got a 118 at Pier, which is significantly better than my previous best -- 124. That's significant progress towards one of my 2010 goals of getting down to 108 at Pier by the end of the year.

I'm planning to get a lesson within the next month, if we can find a date that works, and so I'm expecting to make more progress this year!

I'm excited -- I got my first birdie ever yesterday! I've been fairly consistently getting a par on hole 2 at Leverich, and I'd expected the same yesterday afternoon. But I made about a 30' putt (that I didn't think I had a chance at) for my first birdie. I'd been at Dallas park all day on Saturday watching my husband play in his second tournament, and so maybe some of the skill I saw rubbed off.

it's been fun to read up your progress as you immerse yourself in the wonderful world of disc golf...
